These are the style I use. They are extremely light, and have yet to have a set fail...

Nay for me.
I've seen more crushed scope tubes from these type rings than any other plus they are much more of a PITA to get level than standard rings.

I'd like to know what the advantage is? They also seem as if they would be more likely to have a pinch point. To me the advantage is the following. While mounting a scope and while tightening the rings the scope stays put. Try that with a set of weavers or similar and you wind up with a canted scope. Loosen screws and repeat. I use them on my 30-378, 338-378, 378, 416 and 460 Bees and many other rifles. Never ever had an issue! This is my 375 H&H with them and a Meopta

The Warne versions have worked well for me on a number of rifles. If you read Warne's instructions they are easy enough to mount.

In the past they had become a "go to" and I recommended them to a number of people. My enthusiasm waned when I started running into bad sets. (Too tight, out of round, vertical offset between left/right halves) Maybe the QC is sorted out now.

I will happily take any 1” medium warne premier ring mounts for A Sako-series actions off your hands. I’ve got a couple pair of 30mm waiting for some in kind scopes. I just haven’t found what I want. AV .338 and an AII deluxe in .308 await. I currently use them on my AI .17, AII .243, another AV .338, an M591 .243. Permanents or QD’s would make me plum happy. The maximas wont fit.

I like Talley bases and their split rings, have nothing else on bolt guns. It took a little bit to figure out how to keep scopes level as I tightened the rings.

I only have two sets.. A ‘76 vintage Buehler set on a ‘76 Ruger #3, 22 Hornet. The other is a set of Warne QDs that came with a Kimber Super America 22 Hornet. A bit of a pain in the buttocks to get set up the way I like them.

I have a set on an old rifle, Redfield's and I hate them. You wan to change the scope and you have to take the scope apart to do it. Did it one time and never again!

Clearly, you have a lot of firearm knowledge to share. I enjoy my”cshit”, suits the hunting I do.

Random specs on warne vertical rings: A pair of vertical warne mounts lower, than even warne mountain tech low rings (7200m) Even being steel, they are slightly less than 1 oz heavier than mountain techs, but over $100 cheaper. Warne verticals: 4.30 oz Warne mountain tech 3.39 oz If you didn't notice, stick was right on the fkn money.

I would avoid them. Is that a quote from Mr. Cape Buffalo?😂
